s0n1c87 newbie 2.7feets reef tank

[s0n1c87]

I decided to start a thread on the forum to share my reef tank. Still in the processing of learning. Just converted from FOWLR tank to softie/LPS tank 1months plus back.

Running skimless and doing 5-10% water changes per wk

6 ATI 2ft T5 tubes

Nice photos taken!

Nice coloration and nice photos

[Bunster]

Beautiful photos bro! And you have a nice collection of gobies

[A. Quarium]

Lots of colorful corals you got there! The pics with the gobies are very well taken! I take it your tank does well without a skimmer?

[s0n1c87]

Thanks bro. My tank small and I like gobies and blennies. Still slowly collecting them. Some of them not really eating. Nvr see they eat pellet or mysis shrimp. Hopefully they gt their own way of surviving inside my tank. *cross fingers*

[s0n1c87]

Actually I need some help with my coral ID. Normally I see nice just buy. nvr really ask the ID. LOL

What type of clam is this?

[Angel Keeper]

So if you dunno the type, then how you know your tank is ready for it out whether it's it suitable for your tank? I think it'll be good if you just Google the general information first before making the purchase...

Nice corals & Fishes bro!! Are your gobies peaceful together?? i researched on the net that they do fight sometimes to gain control of the areas they like, thats why i have been stopping myself from adding another goby into my tank!

So far seems ok for me. Just that I gt a hard time feeding them. Some of them like not eating pellet or mysis. Sigh.

[ahchris]

nice fishes and corals

[s0n1c87]

Just bought some test kits but not all.

Cal 520

Mg 1290

KH 6.7

Seems like my Cal too high. Mg and Kh is low. Any advise on my parameter?

Should I do WC or stop WC or what?
